Free Picks
THE PLAY: Baltimore Ravens -6.5 (-116)
Take Baltimore (#266)
With Lamar Jackson at QB, the Ravens have won 70% of their games since 2018. Without him, they've won 25% of their games during that same span. Jackson is expected back on the field this weekend after the bye week; Chicago is as ‘fat and happy’ as it gets after notching four consecutive victories. Chalk worth laying. Take the Ravens
THE PLAY: Dallas Cowboys +3.5 (-119)
Take Dallas (#279)
The Broncos have covered a grand total of ONE pointspread as a favorite all season – beating Cincinnati with Jake Browning behind center. We've seen this ultra-hyped Denver defense get lit up by the Colts, Chargers and Giants in recent weeks; bad news against this explosive (and healthy!) Cowboys offense. I'm not convinced Denver is primed to reel off a five game winning streak, and if they do win, I'm not convinced it'll come by any sort of margin. Take the Cowboys
THE PLAY: Oklahoma -5.0 (-110)
Take Oklahoma (#150)
In a battle between a great offense and a great defense, in general, I want the great defense! The Sooners rank #1 in the country in yards allowed per game, sacks per game and tackles for loss per game. Facing a Rebels team that fell apart late last week vs Georgia, it's hard for this bettor to expect a strong bounceback, especially with head coach Lane Kiffin flirting with other jobs. Take the Sooners.
THE PLAY: Total Under 47.0 (-110)
Take Texas - Mississippi State UNDER (#175-176)
The Arch Manning hype has transformed into Arch Manning concern; a QB who clearly is not living up to expectations at this early stage of his college career. But while the Longhorns offense continues to struggle, their defense continues to play at a ‘national championship contender’ level. Texas is 5-2 to the Under, an emerging trend worth riding here. Take the UNDER.
THE PLAY: Missouri +2.5 (-104)
Take Missouri (#183)
Last year, Vandy was +17.5 in their matchup against the Tigers. This year, the Commodores are laying points, and Missouri is BETTER than they were a year ago. Vanderbilt is simply power rated a notch or two too high right now, and the added distraction of College Gameday won't help the hosts. Missouri is an underdog with the superior defense; a combo that often gets me interested….. Take Missouri
THE PLAY: Virginia -10.5 (-110)
Take Virginia (#139)
I want Virginia off a ‘no show’ game vs Washington State last week, now back in conference play in this ACC Showdown. And I want to fade Bill Belichick's squad off a heartbreaking loss at Cal, flying back 3000 miles across the country to play on a homefield that hasn't been particularly friendly for the hosts of late. Chalk worth laying. Take Virginia

Consultant Bio
Ted Sevransky (better known as Teddy Covers) moved to Las Vegas to bet on sports full-time back in 1998 and he's been doing it successfully ever since. During that time, Teddy has been featured prominently in the mainstream press. Print highlights include the New York Times, Wall Street Journal, Washington Post, Boston Globe, Las Vegas Review Journal and Playboy magazine. Television highlights include CBS This Morning, CNBC, PBS and Bloomberg TV. Teddy starred in the recent sports betting documentary Life on the Line and has been featured in an ESPN 30-for-30 and on Showtime's 'Action' miniseries.
Teddy is a 1992 University of Michigan graduate. His handicapping approach is fine tuned for the modern betting marketplace in 2025; a market that is dominated by stat-based quants - the ‘sharp money’. In one sentence, Teddy looks to identify and identify and isolate 'morphing' teams -- teams that are currently playing at a different level or pace (better or worse; faster or slower) than their long term statistical profile would indicate. Those become teams to bet on, bet against, bet over and bet under, until the quants catch up with current realities and value them correctly.
This ‘Ride the Hot & Fade the Cold’ approach has allowed Teddy to provide for himself and his family with steady income from his sports betting winnings, over nearly three decades. And those decades of experience grinding it out in Vegas enables Teddy to avoid many of the traps and pitfalls that befall ‘cappers. Experience DOES matter in this business. Teddy is one bettor who can handle the highs and lows of this sometimes zany and always exciting business with consistent, calm professionalism.
